illiam Hughes has introduced an electrophoretic paintline at its Plovdiv factory in Bulgaria. This paintline provides a high gloss black finish with strong anti-corrosive properties and is intended mainly for use on the springs, wire forms and assemblies manufactured by William Hughes itself but can also be offered as a service to other manufacturers.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IedsxsFKoy0 Electrophoretic paint – or E coating – is a combination of plating and painting whereby a metal object is dipped in a water-based solution which contains a paint emulsion. An electric current passes through the part causing the paint emulsion to condense onto it.

irBench BD is a self-contained blowdown station for the removal of coolant and swarf from machined parts. An
operator can simply place parts in the cabinet, lower the screen, and use the integral blow gun to clean parts using factory compressed air. An integral venturi system assists with capture of coolant and the filter system in the base of the unit is easily replaced when full.
The new model 1000mm wide BD1000 joins the 500mm wide BD500 and is designed for longer co Both models run solely from factory air supplies with no requirement for electrical connections – making them ideal for location next to machine tools for regular operator use.

Kistler NCFE delivers cost effffefective simple joining processes
T
he new Kistler NCFE servopress solution is specifically designed for simple joining processes to deliver a cost-effective alternative to conventional pneumatic or hydraulic systems. Compared to hydraulic or pneumatic units, the NCFE module offers impressively low energy consumption, simple handling and fast commissioning for applications in the measuring range from 10 to 80 kN.
The joining process is controlled by Kistler's maXYmos NC system, which evaluates and documents the force/displacement curves for joining and press-fit processes in conjunction with the joining modules and the matching IndraDrive servo amplifier. The NCFE module offers significantly greater efficiency than hydraul joining processes delivering savings of about 77% compared to hydrau to pneumatic processes. Further cost savings accrue from the minimal the NCFE system and 100% quality control in real time virtually eliminating rejects during production.

Learn howa switch to robots could help tran sformyour competitivenes s
November 2019, the seminar will provide a simple step-by-step guide to introducing robotic automation to the factory floor.
I
Starting with the question ‘Could you benefit from a robot?’, the event will cover the key aspects of developing, specifying and financing a robotic installation. ABB will demonstrate how to develop the right solution for your needs, and how to calculate the potential return on investment that can be achieved in different types of applications.
There will also be the opportunity to learn from the experiences of an SME manufacturer who has introduced robots to their factory floor, plus the chance to get hands-on experience of operating a robot in ABB’s Robot Training Centre.
“UK manufacturers are struggling to keep pace with other leading nations that are able to quickly produce high-quality goods at low costs. For UK SMEs to remain competitive and boost their productivity they must embrace the latest production technologies,” says Nigel Platt, LBL Manager for ABB Robotics in the UK and Ireland. “Our Switch to Robots event has been designed to help businesses identify whether a robot could be beneficial and explain the steps they need to take in finding the best solution for their requirements.”
